Arrgggh... anyone know of anyone who has or can recon ECU for upper steering column as my solinoid has locked tight and won't release.....SOS!!!!
Can you not strip the old switch and remove the plunger (if it the same as mine) and put back and test? If I remember correctly it is all down the communication from the transponder around the switch to the ECU failing or a bad connection in the ECU
Basically two or three components/ECU's not talking to one another allowing the various bits to do there job, usually you will hear several clicks when you insert the key as the inhibitors open allowing the key to turn and lastly releasing the steering lock.
If you can remove the plunger the key will turn and should cause no further issues well for me so far anyway.
Have a look at the attached which was from BBS with another work around and there is some info on rr.net I think also on here there was a guy in Dubai with the same issue,think it was spiggy tokes or similar but I may be wrong???
